iStockphotoArchaeologists recently discovered skeletal remains of a Medieval “vampire” pinned to the ground with a sickle placed across her neck to prevent her from rising from the dead. The remains of the alleged vampire were found in a 17th century graveyard in Pień, Poland by Professor Dariusz Poliński and his team of researchers from Nicolaus Copernicus University. The silk cap would indicate that the woman she held a high social status. Other methods of anti-vampire rituals that have been discovered included a metal rod being hammered through the skeleton. In July of this year, a 19th century vampire slaying kit was sold at auction for $15,517.
